pls replace web server configuration as follow as user root

mv /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.save
nano /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

simply mark whole block and copy following inside

server.modules = (
        "mod_indexfile",
        "mod_setenv",
        "mod_access",
        "mod_alias",

        "mod_accesslog",
)

server.modules += (
        "mod_compress",
        "mod_dirlisting",
        "mod_staticfile",
)

and restart the web server

systemctl restart lighttpd.service

let’s check available as well as enabled configuration

ls -la /etc/lighttpd/conf-{available,enabled}

hello,

thank you very much, i replaced the lighttpd.conf file as you said, and that fixed it. i am now able to get to the login page of my nextcloud server.
